It's about time!

Scandal's first lady Mellie (Bellamy Young) is finally going to get some attention from the opposite sex. (And thankfully we're not talking about more horrific flashbacks of her with Fitz's dad.)

Few details are known about Tenney's character, Andrew, other than he is described as handsome and charismatic. Tenney will appear on the show sometime next year. After next week's fall finale, Scandal returns on Feb. 27 for its final eight episodes of the just-reduced season.
